Giant?

[Giantz11]

1 lb in 8 days, are youa sking if you should eat more? If so I'd say stay right where you are. I fyou gained 1 lb in 8 days with no visable gain in fat. I;d say that you are doing a hell of a job.

[Girlyman]

yeah, ^what he said. Are you cutting or bulking though>? hah

[Giantz11]

Also, I believe the last time you posted your diet you said you were on a few "supplements" so it could be the result of glycogen supercompensation, and some water. Keep at the diet a little while longer and up the cals if the weight stops going up.

[Flex2winny]

100% natty............I need to wait......new job starts Friday and I want to get my schedule down before hand.........plus, its got me worried sick.

Weight goes up 1 one day, down 2 the next, up 2 the next down 1 the next.......lol...normal? Yes, same time weighing.........

[Flex2winny]

bulking, but I'm in an office all day

think I have a slow metoblism?

This is WITH daily cardio............that scares me for when I need to cut, should it??

[Giantz11]

Weight flucuations are normal, and if your weight isn't in the form of BF, then you are all set. Stay right where you are until you aren't gaining anymore then re-adjust.

[Alpha-Male]

have you measured out your macros and such? i mean, include your workouts and cardio, as well as bmr and daily activity level, then hit at least 500kcal above that for weight gain...i haven't bulked natural in quite some time, but i would think that you should be packing on more than 1 lb. in a week bro...

500 cals above for 7 days would be about 1lb LBM.

[Alpha-Male]

yeah, theoretically...but he also mentioned that he's jumpin' up and down, and his bodyfat hasn't changed any (according to the Tanita)...i guess that would just drive me ****in' insane...maybe cut back on the cardio a bit, or jack up the kcal some more...JMO

nOT SURE WHAT TO DO NOW..........today I was 187, yesterday I was 189, so you see my problem. Cardio is 40 min walk on the treadmill and a 1 mile light light jog post training....too much?

I also just read that it's dumb to eat pre-training as the body won't use it for fuel anyways. It's better to take that meal and eat it post training on top of all your other meals as this is when the body needs it most. Thought?
But this would mean I wouldnt eat from 12:30 until 6:30. Rough? What do you guys do?
